An attack on a cyclist by four youths is being treated by police as attempted murder. Felipe David, 39, a Portuguese man living in Epsom, Surrey, was set upon in nearby West Ewell on Tuesday evening. The youths chased Mr David and one pulled him off his bike. He was beaten to the ground, suffering severe injuries including a fractured skull, and last night was seriously ill in hospital.

The four people, thought to be in their late teens or early 20s, chased Mr David before one of them pulled him off his bike.
